#MuslimRage, #Propaganda, #Empire. I would like to address the ways in which paid advertisements recently mounted on the New York City public transportation system are connected to the release and circulation of the “Innocence of Muslims” video. Both are made legible through the now-hegemonic grammar of the War on Terror and an archive of Orientalist tropes and themes. It is that same grammar that scripts the protests and violence that erupted across Muslim majority states in reaction to the video (a reaction which was clearly hoped for and incited by the producers) as exercises in rage, a heightened emotional state that precludes rationality.
Hatred and rage, we have been told by both the American government and mainstream media since 2001, fuel the fire of Muslim terrorism and of that terrifying thing, jihad. In this discourse, Muslim terrorists/savages do not have politics or history. Instead, they are ruled by an uncontrollable and often combustible hatred for “our way” of life.

Tel Aviv, 7 October (AKI) - An alleged secret memorandum drawn up by Israel's foreign ministry and obtained by an Israeli daily says the Jewish state will move away from "lone dependence" on the United States as a strategic ally and will instead refocus its policy towards the developing world. Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman intends to discuss with senior ministry officials the implementation of the five-page document, according to sources quoted by Israeli daily The Jerusalem Post - which obtained a copy of the memo. "For decades, Israel has neglected entire regions and continents, including Latin America, Africa, Eastern Europe and the Balkans, and Central and Southeast Asia.
The cost of this neglect has been immense, and has been evident at the UN and other international forums," said the memo, quoted by The Jerusalem Post. The memo also says Israel would move away from US dependence. Many Iraqis Dismiss High-Priced U.S. Media Campaign as Propagand. BAGHDAD -- The pages of Baghdad Now, an Arabic-language newspaper, portray a country on the upswing. Iraqi soldiers and policemen are proud, capable civil servants who take weapons off the streets and doggedly pursue criminals. Iraqis of all sectarian backgrounds work in unison. The Iraqi government delivers. The paper's editorials hail democracy. Fashion pages chronicle the latest fads in Beirut and Kuwait. There's little news of the more than 130,000 American troops who remain in the country. That the paper has no publicly known editor, no bylines and no ads is no mistake. "The millions spent on this is wasted money," Ziyad al-Aajeely, director of Iraq's nonprofit Journalistic Freedom Observatory, said as he flipped through a recent edition of Baghdad Now.
Some campaigns have been designed to encourage Iraqis to turn their backs on insurgent groups and cooperate with the U.S. military and Iraq's security forces. A Newspaper Ignored.

Cyberattacks are an extension of strong feelings on boths sides of the conflict A propaganda war is being waged on the internet between supporters of the Israeli and Palestinian sides in the current conflict in the Gaza Strip. Activists have turned to defacing websites, taking over computers, and shutting down Facebook groups. US Military sites, Nato, and an Israeli Bank have all been targeted. Experts have warned users to be on the lookout for phishing emails and webmasters to ensure their servers are secure. The hacking of security barriers for political or ideological reasons has been branded by some as hacktivism.
And it is thought that as use of the internet grows, so too will the number of attacks. Defaced On 7 January, pro-Palestinian hackers defaced several high-profile websites, including a US Army website, and the Nato Parliamentary Assembly's website. "Stop attacks u israel and usa !

In addition to bombs and missiles that have killed an ever increasing number of Palestinian civilians, Israel has dropped millions of flyers on the occupied, besieged Gaza Strip. One such flyer, an image of which was sent to The Electronic Intifada, seeks to recruit Palestinian collaborators.
Signed by the “Israel Defense Forces command,” and addressed to the “the residents of the Gaza Strip,” the flyer states: “You hold the responsibility for your own fate!” It invites Palestinians to call or email the Israeli army “to inform us about the location of rocket launching sites and the terrorist gangs that made you hostages of their actions.” Because collaboration with an occupier is universally viewed as one of the worst forms of betrayal, the flyer warns “For your own safety, please maintain secrecy when you call us.”
